High School Graduation

My youngest son Tony graduated from high school this last Friday. Of course we're proud of him and he is so happy to be through with it!

My parents had been visiting and during that visit my mother-in-law turned 92 so we had our annual birthday party at Seacliff Beach. It was a little cool at the beach and somewhat overcast but that is how our weather has been for weeks now??? It's June, where's the sun? it only peeks out long enough to tease us. I tend to get mild depression when too many gloomy days crop up. My cure is to exercise more but I have been a slug. Each day I say I will start an exercise program. Finally yesterday I walked my driveway, you laugh? My drive is over a 1/3 mile long and is very steep so the climb back up sometimes requires the imaginary rope to make it to the top. If you want to check it out on Google Earth let me know and I'll send you my address! So today I'll get back out there and it's a start.

I have to get my studio in some sort of order as my friend Jennifer is coming to stay with me for a few days and we're going to work on our slip dresses and organize everything for Art Unraveled. Here's our new hang tags.

I'll be back with my next post of a hat I'm working on that is like the hats we'll be teaching students to make at AU.

Goat Hill Fair

I am primarily a fiber artist: a weaver, a dyer of cloth, creator of altered cloth books and art, and a designer of garments and accessories. I have a studio in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California where I immerse myself in projects and gaze out over the hills to the Monterey Bay. I write a little poetry from time to time and songs too. I have a great family, two sons, a husband, and joint custody of 2 cats, Moo and Ducky.
